Inventor 2040 W - kit with base board and Raspberry Pi Pico W

Description

A set with a universal base board and Raspberry Pi Pico W. The control is handled by the RP2040 microcontroller equipped with two ARM Cortex-M0+ cores operating at 133 MHz, 264 KB RAM and 2 MB of external QSPI flash memory. In addition, the board is equipped with the Infineon CYW43439 system, extending the board with wireless connectivity.

On the base board, the user will find a two-channel DRV8833 motor driver with JSH-SH connectors and LEDs indicating the direction of engine rotation. In addition, there is a connector with an audio output for connecting a loudspeaker, a set of 3-pin connectors with PWM output for servicing and GPIO pins with an analog input function. The board also has 12 addressable RGB LEDs, buttons, and two Qwiic/Stemma QT connectors that allow you to connect additional sensors with an I2C interface. The module can be powered by a battery and is compatible with boards from the Breakout Garden series (place for soldering the connector).

Thanks to such a rich set of pins, the set can be used as a robot controller, element of a home automation system or other remotely controlled device.
